Video: ‘ JUDGE SENTENCES BOB MCDONNELL TO TWO YEARS IN PRISON FOR CORRUPTION ‘

Bob McDonnell, the former governor of Virginia, was sentenced by a federal judge on Tuesday to two years in prison for accepting lavish gifts from a wealthy donor while holding office.

United States District Court Judge James R. Spencer announced his ruling just shy of 3 pm local time early on Tuesday, four months and two days after a jury there found Mr McDonnell and his wife guilty of public corruption charges.

The Twitter account for the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia confirmed the ruling shortly after.
